LICSW, 14 years of experience
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Therapist with over 11 years of professional experience. I work with teens, adults, and seniors to address a wide range of issues, including alcohol use, addictions, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, poor coping skills, family conflict, men's issues, narcissism, racial identity issues, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, and substance use issues.
The first session is mostly to get to know you and to understand what brings you to treatment. I usually go over my approach to therapy and what to expect from me.
I'm genuinely curious and enjoy meeting people and learning their stories.
In a nutshell, this person is ready to grow. Growth is about recognizing and accepting that you want to do better, that you want to feel better, and being committed to learning what you need to get there. My role, as the therapist, is to help you figure out what is keeping you stuck, how to get unstuck, and how to get to the next stage of your life.

Abdul just gets it…every time! He brings clinical experience and breaks it down to an everyday useful level. I’m so grateful for his support for my family during this difficult time in our lives.

Abdul has helped me gain a much better understanding of my Brother's mental health condition and my own need to establish boundaries in helping my brother while preserving my own emotional health.
An eclectic approach allows for more flexibility in helping people to identify their challenges and work together to find solutions.
Each person's journey is unique to them, and the therapists rule is simply to help them find their way to happiness.
